Our meetings are on the 3rd Monday of each month, in St. Thomas Lutheran Church at the corner of east Third and Smith Road, in the classroom at the end of the building.
Our next meeting is Monday, May 19th.
It’s time once again for our annual auction which means it is your opportunity for stash reduction. So go through your work room or studio and gather the items that are taking up space, that you wonder why you ever bought, that you no longer ‘love and just must have’, or for which you simply have no use. Bring your fibers, books, and equipment to be auctioned during the meeting and turn your excess into cash.
